Woodworking hobbyists are trading the old joke that "the one who dies with the most clamps wins," a nod to the running truth among DIYers that you can never own too many clamps. The quip comes alongside a companion saying: a good handyman or handywoman is one who can do a one-hour job in two hours rather than four, gently mocking how home projects always stretch longer than planned.
Why now: The self-deprecating humor about tool hoarding and slow DIY projects resonates with the woodworking and home improvement community.
